Hi,

With OSProcess package, is it possible to execute a shell command in 
another host process than the host process in which the VM is executing?

With Linux CLI tools, I want to convert PDF document to a collection of 
JPEG bitmaps , and it may be best executed asynchronously and in another 
OS process the one used by the VM (to take advantage of the multicore 
cpu architecture).

Thanks


OSProcess>>command: aCommandString
     "Run a command in a shell process. Similar to the system(3) call in 
the standard C library,
     except that aCommandString runs asynchronously in a child process."

     "OSProcess command: 'ls -l /etc'"

     ^ self thisOSProcess command: aCommandString
